I would like to use a bot to upload articles on

I wouldn't object, but the following part is a bit
unclear:
The ethnic makeup of the city is 80.5% Jewish and
other, and 20.0% Arab (15.4% Muslim and 4.0%
Christian). There are 450 new immigrants.
What's unclear about it? Also, do you think that there are too many
statistics, or too few? There are a lot more statistics available, but I
don't want to clutter up the pages with a bunch of useless statistics.
Also, I would like to know how this bot handles it
when articles are already there but it wants to put
this data there.

I haven't worked out the details yet, but it will do it gracefully,
without clobbering any existing data. I'll post an example article of a
conflict soon. There are only a dozen or so existing articles, so it
will be possible to go over them individually to make sure the bot's
article is merged well with the existing article.
